I just wanted to clarify that the online Predictive Index test is a personality test administered by an outside source. Answers given are kept confidential and are not shared back with HR or anyone at the company. The Predictive Index test asks your age because studies show people answer the questions differently based upon various generational factors. For example, being punctual. and on time to someone in their 50-60s means to get to a meeting about 5 minutes before so there before the meeting start time. But for someone in their 20-30s, if they arrive by 5 minutes after the meeting start time, they still feel they were punctual. Personality tests, such as these, all ask for age or date of birth. Because the information is kept from the company, there's no way it could be used to determine if a person would hired. So it is not an illegal question for the personality test company to ask. Less

Both in producing and marketing. Less

Being a small company, the question about salary was the most difficult, gauging what to ask (based on the research about the company). The unexpected question was the request about what abilities outside the advertised role could I see as being useful at Eagle Creative.

Thinking on your feet in an interview is so important. I'd suggest a skill that perhaps is not in the role description but that could add significant value. For example, skills and knowledge about barcoding software has saved my own company a significant amount in barcode generation cost. Another example is my contacts with quality suppliers has added value by making our digital budget more competitive and also providing a stronger pool of suppliers to work with. Less
